"Your hero outfit is really cute!", Tsunotori told Kitsune.

Kitsune was wearing a yellow sundress and yellow goggles that matched her eyes. A crown of thorned flowers was pinned to her hair.

"Thank you! Yours is really cool!"

She liked Tsunotori so far. She was small and cute.

Tetsutetsu was loud but he was mostly friendly.

Monoma seemed like a loud asshole to Kitsune but he was fairly friendly to her. Although he wouldn't shut up about the other class.

"They're pompous!", he exclaimed, "Total cocky jerks!"

A girl who's name was Kendo replied, "And you aren't?", under her breath.

"I said behave", Vlad scolded.

"Yes, Mr King", they all responded in unison.

Kitsune adjusted her goggles and turned back to Tsunotori.
"Where are we heading?"

"USJ. It's where we work on fighting and rescue techniques", she explained to Kitsune with a smile, "Usually we work with our class only but apparently today we're doing rescue with class 1-A."

"Assholes!", Monoma sang.

"Monoma."

"Sorry Mr King."

The class entered a large domed building.

Kitsune gasped when she walked inside. It was as if an entire city was placed inside the building.

"I know right?", Tsunotori squealed, "It's so cool!"

A group of students led by a man who hadn't slept in weeks stood in front of them, waiting.

"That's class A", Monoma whispered to her.

Class A looked intimidating to Kitsune. She could feel her anxiety rising already, and pressed her hands against her face to comfort herself.

Then she noticed something.

A dark shadow waving at her.

It was the demon from this morning, lingering behind the bird boy from the tree. It was waving at her happily.

Kitsune smiled and waved back.

"Kousaki-chan!"

"Yadome!!"

It was one of Ravan's friends that he introduced to her the other day; Jett Yadome.

The two teachers split up the class into two groups: the victims and the heroes.

"There's been an earthquake", the sleepy teacher said, "Victims, you have five minutes to hide in the rubble. Heroes, you have to carry your victims out of the rubble."

Jett walked up to Kitsune. He flashed her a shy smile.

"Victim team up?", he asked, running a hand through his dark hair.

"Sure!"

Kitsune didn't want to be alone in one of the abandoned buildings anyways.

They hid on the third floor of one of the buildings. Kitsune flew over the rubble and perched on top, helping Jett reach the top too.

While they waited to be rescued, he asked her how she was adjusting to living in Japan again.

"It takes some getting used to", she said. She held her palms out and let out a faint light so she could at least see a little without giving their location away.

"That's your quirk?", he asked her.

Kitsune nodded. "What's yours?"

Jett chuckled nervously.

"I don't know if you'd want me to use it."

"Awe c'mon", Kitsune smiled, "It can't be bad."

He sighed. His blue eyes showed his nervousness.
"Alright, give me your hand."

She deactivated her quirk in her left hand and gave it to Jett.

In no time she felt tired.

She could barely move her limbs.

Her eyelids struggled to stay open.

"Ahhhh, I'm sorry I did too much!", Jett flustered, holding her up.

"I-It's fine", she said. She felt herself panicking. "What did you do anyways?"

"I drain people of energy. It makes them really slow and tired", he explained, "Right now you've probably gotten a week's worth of sleep drained, I'm so sorry..."

"It's fine...I just feel so sleepy..."

"What happened?", a deep voice asked.

Who was that? Another student? The voice sounded familiar, but Kitsune was too tired to put her finger on it.

"Long story", Jett explained, "But she needs to see Recovery Girl to have her stamina restored."

Kitsune felt something nudge her side. She forced her eyelids open and looked into the eyes of the friendly demon.

"Hey there buddy", she said weakly.

The demon put her hand on its head, waiting for her to scratch it.

"Dark Shadow, no. We need to get her out of here."

She felt someone pick her up.

She was falling asleep.

Whoever it was, she curled up against them and crashed.
